A Dynamic Multilevel Multiscale Framework for Accurate and Efficient Simulation of CO2-Brine Multiphase Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media

One of the most important challenges facing academic, industrial and policy-making sectors is meeting with the increasing energy demand while preserving the affordability of the energy and maintaining the quality of the planet earth (including the environment, specially by reducing its greenhouse gas footprint). This global challenge demands for...

A multi-scale approach for numerical modelling of the CO2 sequestration process

Subsurface carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration is a promising technology to reduce the CO2 emission into the atmosphere. After injection into subsurface formation, the carbon dioxide plume can migrate several kilometres until it is fully trapped. Four major mechanisms play an important role in trapping which include structural trapping, residual...
